Today, during morning lessons, we heard a bird hit one of the living room windows. The girls noticed that it was lying on the ground and went outside to see if it was still alive (it was). A quick Google search helped us know what to do, as well as confirm that it was in fact OK to pick it up. It took this sweet little bird about ten minutes to sit up, and then another ten minutes of sitting in Grace's lap before it finally flew off. xo
It looks like a downy woodpecker. We had a northern flicker in our yard today, and we have seen a lot of woodpeckers out and about much more than usual lately. I'm so glad this little fella was ok!
